In comparison, theocracy doesn't include anything that seems similarly useful, while obligatory Dogma limits you to 2 ideas, making very good cartography much worse.
Allthough the advantages of theocracy may be not as good as the other government types, it is a great government type to start with.
Start with theocracy, built a temple in 3 cities, and get 3 theocracy advances for free (no action cost & no advance cost) Then when you want to change, start in a new government type, and already have all government advances.
